Sleep getting worse not better at 9 weeks - dreamfeed?

Our 9 week olds night sleep is getting worse. He once was on his way to 6 hr stretches and now is less than 5. He's also waking after less than 3 hrs after his 'long stretch' so we are almost up 3 times everynight.

I know he's capble of going longer between. Do we try a dreamfeed? He currently goes to bed between 7:15/7:45 after bath and nursing. Amd he often needs help falling asleep initially, we go in at least once.
